INSTALLATION OF OFFICERs.-L Last even
ing, Jan. 4th, James G. Swan, vice Great
lncohonee, representing the great council
Of the United States for Washington Ter
ritory, raised up the following Chiefs of
Chimacum Tribe, Improved order of Red
Men: Prophet, Nelson T. Oliver; Sachem,
Alfred ]. Sweudsen; Senior Sycamore,
Jas. Dslgarduo; Junior Sag. more. John
T. Norris; Chief of Records, d. p. Tim
Bile; Assistant Olief of Records, Robert
Biles; Keeper Of Wampum, John c. Ap-
pleton. The Tribe numbers 130 men,
bers, aud they are all wide awake men
who will push ;orward the building OF
their new wigwam on Maple avenue at
once. The remarkable growth Of the
order of Improved Red Men in this Ter
rit0ry, and the increase of the order all
over the United States, will undoubtedly
encourage other tribes to start in various
places in tie territory. This is desirable,
AS there should be Great CouGcil for
this territory. The order of Improved
Red Men, rs a charitable and beneficial
institution. is peculiarly adapted for this
territory. and there is no other institu-
ton so eminently adapted to promote
social intercourse and friendship among
al classes in n community az this order;
and "a soon as the new hall is finished,
SO that the public can witness come OF
the interesting social gatherings of the
order, the balls, picnics. clam-hakes and
ublic feasts of ceremony, as we'll as care
+ tue sick, relief CT the distressed and
Jurial of the dead. we predict for the
tribe an increased popularity and pros
perity.
